In 1996 he was returned to the QMJHL where he led the Granby Predateurs to the President’s Cup – winning the coveted Guy Lafleur Trophy as the playoff MVP and then on to a Memorial Cup Championship where he was named as a first team all-star.

Following his brief stint with the Ottawa Senators organization, Doig was acquired by the Washington Capitals in 2002-03 where he became a solid blueliner with the club while spending the early part of the season with the team’s AHL affiliate, the Portland Pirates.
